As the day draws near

Everything's happening so fast, i can hardly contain my excitement.
I'm finally moving out from this place after almost 1.5 years. On & off i have put up with my current landlord's weird behaviour and lack of respect on other's privacy. I'm finally seeing the end of things...at least...from him. I've got a new place somewhere further east and I'm really looking forward to a new start. A world where i can only just...imagine. And whatever image that i have in my head right now, is a pretty good one...one which i'm very much looking forward to.

That aside, I'm finally goin off for my long awaited break. TWO DAMN GOOD WEEKS of pure NOTHINGNESS! I can sleep as much as I want, eat whatever my heart desires or do whatever i like, whenever i feel like it for a full two weeks! Life's a bliss. And when it's time for me to come back and face with reality, at least i still have that image in my mind that i'm looking forward to. So its from now until whenever...there wasn't any single grey cloud in the distance! yahhhoooooooooooo!

The Beckoning

I didn't do it on purpose...so happen that i was there at the shop...and they had a copy right on the shelf...so i bought it. Just as simple as that. I ain't no addict.

Of Hate and Love

My passion for this game is like a life's journey. After hitting 70 on my latest toon, I've been spending my nights trying to get some reps with the many factions in the game. A tiring process which I've been through like twice now. And i'm still attempting it for a third. With WOTLK coming to stores tomorrow, when will redemption come...?

I was having dinner with someone earlier after work. Talking away casually and laughing at some stupid jokes...it was truly something enjoyable. Sometimes I think I can be pretty self-centered. I dont pay too much attention on what others might told me during a course of conversation. Perhaps, I have been told many things before...but this thing...that was coveyed over dinner just now, shouldnt be something which I should have played a deaf ear at. At least...not literally.

The friend has been having hearing problem since years before we knew each other and it was pretty certain that, a remark has been made to me before this. To my memory, I failed to register something as important as that. And I have been repeatedly annoyed by his lack of attention when I used to call him from his back. Usually he only listens to his ipod with the left earphone plugged in. So I naturally assumed the ignorance is an attempt to agitate me. Though I felt rather sorry and guilty over my lack of understanding to a friend, I cant help but to visualize how it is like being in those shoes. For years, I have taken for granted my life and what I'm capable of doing...I've never considered myself as...tampered. I can never understand how it's like growing up that way. To think of that...reminds me of someone from long ago...someone...i once knew, someone close and dear. I wish I could have done something for him back then...

Enraged!

It could have been a rather peaceful evening. A quiet dinner with friends to end a slow-paced day. But sometimes wishful thinking could lead to blood boiling situation.

I stayed back a lil from work today. Thought I could use the extra time to catch up some work which has been clogged up for a while. Who knows I ended up picking up someone else's problem. And best of all, when it was known that it wasn't my fault at all...some people would still dare joked about it and said it was my fault and that such things should be shared out. Burden must be shared and fault must be spread across! Yah right. What happen to the times when a credit was gained and it was all "I DID IT!" or "I MANAGED TO GET IT DONE! YAHHH!". What happen to "WE" back then? And now...out of the blue, WE are ONE?

Though it was meant to be a joke but i wasn't quite in the mood for such taste of humor. Not at 8plus in the evening and the reason I was staying back for being rendered useless. So once it was known the error was due to someone's incompetence. I left with a rather heated tummy and lungs. The hot air within needs to be unleashed. Thus, I vent it over dinner, on the phone to a few friends and now on my good old diary. And...i'm still not getting over it yet!

Dozing off in public

Imagine having to wait 2 hours for somebody to come out. I wonder how
much time does an average person spend in his or her lifetime just
waiting? I've been sitting at c&t close to an hour now. I should have
gone home and wow some earlier. My addiction is calling. I need my
dose of counter-sleep med. Or maybe another cuppa...

The lust for a World left behind

Just when I thought I'm finally getting over my past addiction, words came to me today that the new 3.0.2 version is finally out. Plenty of OP spells for my Arcane Mage! Awesome heals for my TOL Druid...and best of all, exotic pets for my BM Hunter! I'm still trying to hold it back...at least, till the new expansion...but the evil is drawing near...and my soul is weak.

A complete metaphor

Sometimes it's not easy to get your message through over some text chat. Things typed on one end would probably carry a complete different meaning when it arrives at the recipient's end. Especially if you and the recipient are of different 'native'. Sometimes I find it hard to get my thoughts across to people who's been brought up differently. Going to different schools, growing up with different crowds. It's not about good or bad, but it's just of ...a different wave-length. The chemistry between humans are sometimes...indefinite.

I have been feeling rather weird-out as of late. The more i get such a feeling the more agitated I become. The more I feel like breaking the bonds and ripping my way out of the skin that tightens around my face. Blocking the air...making me breathless. Sometimes the actions of another, though unintentional...may brought unwanted effects unto others.

I find it hard to explain, so I gave it a metaphor:

"Like...you were walking pass a street...suddenly an accident happen...and a car's tyre flew out and hit u in the face. Although u were just passing by, ...you died without knowing what hit u."

...i'm not sure how much it meant at the other side of the chat window, but that's precisely how i felt at that very moment. Perhaps I have exaggerated a little, but i do believe it's not entirely nothing. Time to draw an escape card.
